<h2>Changing
permissions for a tool in a course or a project site</h2> 
 

<p><strong>Note:</strong> To complete the procedures in this
document, you must be assigned a role having the necessary
permissions.  To determine your role, follow the directions in <a href="content.hlp?docId=arbu">Participant roles</a>.  For a
basic understanding of roles and permissions, see <a href="content.hlp?docId=arax">Permissions and roles: Overview</a>.</p>

<p>Permissions are granted for a tool rather than for
a particular item created by using a tool. For example, permissions
are set for the Announcement tool, rather than for individual
announcements.</p>

<p><strong>Note:</strong> In Resources you can set permissions for all
resources, and you can also set permissions for folders of
resources. </p>


<p>To change permissions for a tool, follow the steps below.</p>

<ol><li>Open the site by clicking its tab.
<br />
<br /></li><li>In the <a href="content.hlp?docId=arcc">menubar</a>, click the tool for which you want to set
permissions.
<br />
<br /></li><li>Click the <strong><code>Permissions</code></strong> button along the top of the main
window.
<br />
<br /></li><li>Check or uncheck the boxes to grant the permissions.
<br />
<br /></li><li>Click <strong><code>Save</code></strong>. To change your selection, click
<strong><code>Cancel</code></strong>. </li></ol>

<p><strong>Note:</strong> You must exit the permissions feature by
clicking <strong><code>Save</code></strong> or <strong><code>Cancel</code></strong> before you can set
permissions in another tool.</p>

<p>Each tool has a different set of available permissions. For a general
idea of the permissions available, see the list below of permissions
for the Schedule tool:</p>

<ul><li><strong>new:</strong> Create a new item
<br />
<br /></li><li><strong>delete:</strong> Delete an item
<br />
<br /></li><li><strong>import:</strong> Import an item
<br />
<br /></li><li><strong>read:</strong> Read an item
<br />
<br /></li><li><strong>revise:</strong> Revise an item
<br />
<br /></li><li><strong>all.groups:</strong> See postings associated with any group
</li></ul>
